| Gene Symbol | FCGRT |
| Entrez Gene ID | 2217 |
| Full Name | Fc fragment of IgG receptor and transporter |
| Synonyms | FCRN,alpha-chain |
| General protein information |
|
| Gene Type | protein-coding |
| Organism | Homo sapiens(human) |
| Genome | |
| Summary | This gene encodes a receptor that binds the Fc region of monomeric immunoglobulin G. The encoded protein transfers immunoglobulin G antibodies from mother to fetus across the placenta. This protein also binds immunoglobulin G to protect the antibody from degradation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]. |
